Penguins recall defenseman Mark Friedman from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton
The Penguins recalled defenseman Mark Friedman from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton of the American Hockey League on Tuesday.
This marks the third time this season Friedman has been recalled to the NHL roster.
Previously recalled on Nov. 11 and Dec. 14, Friedman has yet to appear in an NHL game in 2022-23.
On Friday, Friedman was assigned to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton in what was a procedural transaction for the benefit of the salary cap.
In 19 AHL games this season, Friedman has scored five points (one goal, four assists).
